Key Features

What Does Best Value Mean?

Best Value Silver Britannias are intended for customers whose priority is buying silver bullion without selecting a particular year or collector edition.

Your order may contain coins from a single year or a mixture of eligible dates, depending on stock. A particular portrait, anniversary mark or design variation is not guaranteed.

Coins may show surface marks or other signs of handling. Appearance can vary, so this product is suited to buyers purchasing for silver content rather than a guaranteed pristine finish.

One Troy Ounce of 999 Fine Silver

Each coin contains one troy ounce of fine silver, giving buyers a straightforward way to build their holdings in individual, manageable units.

The 999 fineness means the silver is 99.9% pure. The Royal Mint’s specifications for its Best Value 1oz Silver Britannia confirm a one-troy-ounce fine silver content, £2 denomination and diameter of 38.61mm.

Whether purchasing a single coin or a larger quantity, the one-ounce format makes it convenient to add to your holdings over time.

Britannia Design and Royal Portraits

The familiar bullion design depicts Britannia standing with her trident and shield. Philip Nathan’s interpretation combines Britain’s maritime heritage with a figure long associated with British coinage.

Depending on the year supplied, the obverse features a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II or King Charles III. Portraits and background details can differ between issues, giving mixed-date purchases some visual variety.

Silver Britannia Security Features

Security features vary across the post-2013 range.

The Royal Mint introduced four advanced security features on the 2021 Silver Britannia:

• Latent image: A detail that changes between a padlock and a trident as the viewing angle changes.
• Surface animation: Background detailing that creates the appearance of moving waves.
• Micro-text: The inscription “DECUS ET TUTAMEN”, meaning “an ornament and a safeguard”.
• Tincture lines: Fine detailing within Britannia’s shield.

Earlier coins do not carry this complete set of features. As this is a mixed-date product, the security details present will depend on the coins supplied.

CGT-Exempt Silver Coins for UK Residents

Silver Britannias are UK legal tender with a face value of £2. Under current UK rules, they are exempt from Capital Gains Tax for UK residents, meaning gains on their disposal are exempt from CGT.

This makes Silver Britannias an option for buyers who want recognised physical silver with the CGT treatment available to qualifying sterling legal tender coins.

CGT exemption is separate from VAT. The price shown for this product includes VAT.
